claim:ray-facchinello:name:1nameRaymond “Ray” Aldo Facchinello

His obituary opens “Raymond Aldo Facchinello” and the grave marker photographed on his memorial reads RAYMOND ALDO, so the middle name is record-stated, not compiled. Ray married Joan Fleenor on March 30, 1951; their obituaries identify Paula, Rick, and Jami as their children.

Deceased, per the cited sources.

claim:ray-facchinello:birth:1birthbirth · February 7, 1930 · Padroni, Colorado

Ray's obituary (tier 2) states directly that he was born in Padroni, Colorado on February 7, 1930, and the grave marker photographed on his memorial reads FEBRUARY 7, 1930. No birth certificate has been inspected; Joan's obituary names him only as her husband.

confirmed2 · official-transcriptaccepted
claim:ray-facchinello:death:1deathdeath · December 28, 2015 · Littleton, Colorado

Ray's obituary (tier 2) states directly that he died at home in Littleton, Colorado on December 28, 2015; the marker reads DECEMBER 28, 2015 and Joan's obituary records that he predeceased her. The Find a Grave page's death field says 28 Dec 2016, a data-entry error contradicted by the marker on the same page and by the obituary; it is not an alternate claim.

confirmed2 · official-transcriptaccepted
claim:ray-facchinello:marriage:1marriagemarriage · March 30, 1951 · Aurora, Colorado

Both obituaries state the marriage of March 30, 1951. The Arapahoe County marriage ledger transcription (Book 26, page 282, licence 31275; tier 2) records the licence issued in Arapahoe County to Ray Facchinello and Joan Fleenor, both resident there, and the marriage performed on 1951 Mar 30 at Aurora, Adams County. The courthouse ledger page itself has not been ordered; officiant and witnesses are not transcribed.

claim:ray-facchinello:migration:1migrationmigration · between 1934 and 1936 · Sterling, Colorado → Littleton, Colorado

Ray's own obituary says the family moved to the Littleton area in 1934 and that he attended Littleton schools; Lee's obituary agrees on 1934 and Primo's obituary transcription says 1936. Conditional: the year is in open conflict (conflict:facchinello-family:littleton-move-year) and no record places him in the move.
